Truth

(album: Somebody Besides Yourself - 2000)

You only want what you can't have
You can't have another piece of my soul
Another part of me
You take exactly what you want
Even when it's not mine to give you
And it's not yours to take away
You're stimulated
You're aggravated
I feel so obligated
But I'm not gonna let you make me run

This time I'm gonna stay right
This time I'm gonna stand right here in the truth
In the truth
The beautiful troublesome truth
Honesty, bittersweet honesty
No more patterns to repeat
No more chaos to delete
No more people to protect
Above the ground without a net
You gotta trust yourself first
And then overcome the worst
Find some integrity
Some integrity
You're stimulated
You're aggravated
I feel so obligated
But I'm not gonna let you make me run

This time I'm gonna stay right
This time I'm gonna stand right here in the truth
In the truth
The beautiful troublesome truth
Honesty, bittersweet honesty
In the truth
In the truth
The beautiful troublesome truth
But at least it's the truth
Honesty, bittersweet honesty
